NOTE:
• The compact spare tire does not have a tire
pressure monitoring sensor. Therefore, the
TPMS will not monitor the pressure in the
compact spare tire.
• If you install the compact spare tire in place of
a road tire that has a pressure below the
low-pressure warning limit, upon the next ig-
nition switch cycle, the "Tire Pressure Moni-
toring Telltale Light" will remain on and a
chime will sound. In addition, the graphic in
the instrument cluster will still display a pres-
sure value in a different color and an "Inflate
to XX" message.
• After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes
above 15 mph (24 km/h), the "Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light" will flash on and off
for 75 seconds and then remain on solid. In
addition, the instrument cluster will display a
"SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message for a mini-
mum of five seconds and then display dashes
(- -) in place of the pressure value.
• For each subsequent ignition switch cycle, a
chime will sound, the "Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing Telltale Light" will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid, and the
instrument cluster will display a "SERVICE
TPM SYSTEM" message for a minimum of five
seconds and then display dashes (- -) in place
of the pressure value.
• Once you repair or replace the original road
tire and reinstall it on the vehicle in place of
the compact spare, the TPMS will update
automatically. In addition, the "Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light" will turn off and the
graphic in the instrument cluster will display a
new pressure value instead of dashes (- -), as
long as no tire pressure is below the low-
pressure warning limit in any of the four active
road tires. The vehicle may need to be driven
for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h)
in order for the TPMS to receive this
information.
TPMS Deactivation — If Equipped
The TPMS can be deactivated if replacing all
four wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with
wheel and tire assemblies that do not have
TPMS Sensors, such as when installing winter
wheel and tire assemblies on your vehicle.
To deactivate the TPMS, first replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires
not equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring
(TPM) Sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for
20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The
TPMS will chime, the "TPM Telltale Light" will
flash on and off for 75 seconds and then remain
on. The instrument cluster will display the
"SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message and then
display dashes (--) in place of the pressure
values.
Beginning with the next ignition cycle, the
TPMS will no longer chime or display the "SER-
VICE TPM SYSTEM" message in the instrument
cluster but dashes (--) will remain in place of the
pressure values.
To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four wheel
and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires
equipped with TPM sensors. Then, drive the
vehicle for up to 20 minutes above 15 mph
(24 km/h). The TPMS will chime, the "TPM
Telltale Light" will flash on and off for 75 sec-
onds and then turn off. The instrument cluster
will display the "SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" mes-
sage and then display pressure values in place
of the dashes. On the next ignition cycle the
"SERVICE TPM SYSTEM" message will no lon-
ger be displayed as long as no system fault
exists.
